L'escanyapobres by Narcís Oller
Set in a small Catalan village, the story unfolds around the life of a miserly moneylender whose obsession with wealth and power leads to his moral and social downfall. As he exploits the financial vulnerabilities of the villagers, his greed isolates him from the community, ultimately resulting in a tragic end. The narrative delves into themes of avarice, social dynamics, and the consequences of unchecked ambition, painting a vivid picture of rural life and human nature in late 19th-century Spain.
